IOC - Actuarial and Human Resources Consulting Services

The State of Illinois is soliciting proposals for actuarial and human resources consulting services under a small purchase with sole source conditions, with proposals due August 3, 2026.

The solicitation does not identify a specific issuing agency within Illinois state government, contracting scope, estimated value, contract term, or performance location. The State of Illinois Standard Terms and Conditions for General Services apply, incorporating prevailing wage requirements where applicable, $1,000,000 general commercial liability insurance, workers' compensation coverage, three-year record retention (five years if federal funds are used), and a 30-day termination-for-convenience clause. The State retains sole ownership of all deliverables. Payment is governed by the Illinois Prompt Payment Act, with invoicing deadlines of July 31 for expenses incurred through June 30 of any fiscal year. Disputes are resolved exclusively through the Illinois Court of Claims. Assignment or subcontracting requires prior written State approval. The contract is subject to appropriations availability.

The sole source designation limits competition to a single identified vendor, though the source material does not name the vendor or justify the sole source rationale. The compressed deadline — less than one week from posting to due date — indicates an expedited award process.
